Nice reports guys....

After talking to Timmy on Saturday and doing a lot of running and gunning I finally found some panfish, my first 50 sunfish were some of the biggest Sunfish I've ever seen in my life and it was great to get on them out of the boat and I"m glad I got them fast because the wind picked up big time and made some good rollers.

Tank and I headed south early this morning and got into a bunch of trout - about 30ish. Nobody around and the fish were active, mostly 10-14 inch rainbows. Dad got one brookie, I got a small brown, and he lost a real nice brown.
A nicer rainbow pushing 15 inches, released...

Soup de' jour for me was a black tungsten beadhead I tied...


Tank working some small water...

Nice pics guys at least someone is fishing and getting some fish. Ive been back to the local spot a few times that gets insanely pressured and finally caught another brown last night not a monster but a nice 21" thats destined for the smoker. sorry no picture as the only one i took was on the counter. fished the pepacton res. a couple of times in the evening as well with no luck yet. It's amazing how many row boats liter its shoreline. Just waiting for the good spring time bluegill bite to start still another month away for that \:\(

tried the heavily pressured spot again around 5pm for 15 minutes just to kill some time no hits again \:\) water was really clear compared to yesterday
went fishing for carp and bullheads this evening

carp fished for about on hour on C with corn no luck so we tried the outlet for bullheads for about 30 mins no luck there either oh well thats fishing back to work tomorrow and through the weekend. Probably get back out on Monday in the rain

Think I'll get out early tomorrow or on the weekend and hit the outlet at Delta Dam for the Perch. I'll bring along heavier gear and take a shot at some trout and maybe carp later. I haven't waded out to that spot at the white water in a bunch of years. I'll have to see how fast and deep it is first! Being shorter, I've got to be careful not to top the waders!! That turbulent water is a haven for the perch. Lite line and tiny lures pull them out like crazy!! Lots more fun that sitting on the rocks. Ear plugs are a must for me. The roar of the water makes my ears hurt! Anyone up for a try?

Well here's what I've been fighting with for the last couple of days after work. Catching my 25 in about 30 cast and the rest go back for another day. I use to work at this marina (10yrs) and I finally was able to get back in to fish, it has some of the best panfishing on Oneida but will be turned into condo's soon, kiss this place goodbye.

Sounds like a great way to spend your off time. Shame to see another spot go away!! How simple it would be to NOT build everywhere, or to maintain the habitat if you did build. Do you think we'll ever learn in time? Enjoy it while you can.

Tank, Billy and I headed south to PA today for some troutin on one of the pretiest streams in NEPA. We fished most of the morning and caught a bunch of trout...
Cold with frost to begin with but warmed up very quickly. A gorgeous day to be alive!

First fish, a nice brookie - alot of fun on a 4-5 wt fly rod...

A macro shot for Todd. This fly has caught a ton of fish and is beat down, on it's last legs...

Billy playing a fish...

We met up with dads cousin...

Pete getting in on the action...

A pretty trout and a pretty rod,
